Best Answer

About sixty a year are killed in India alone. Figures for Vietnam, Thailand, Laos and Sumatra indicate a few deaths from each country every year. Tigers have always been the cat most likely to prey on humans and one tigress killed over 436 people in the early 1900's. At that time , however, there were many more tigers than today. The tiger is larger and more powerful than the lion and in hybrids between the two the tiger parent is dominant.

About 250 tigers were killed due to poachers each DAY, until about 2000. This is horrible, because they are wonderful animals, and they will soon be extinct if people do not act now. What people do not know at the moment, is that if humans could see the animal that is scared, wanting to protect its' young, and wanting to belong to a larger pack than its' own, rather than the killer animal who has no feelings or a family, tigers would be a little more known as the good guy rather than the bad.ABout 500 tigers are killed each year by poachers.
